Our opponent checks and we bet 1.7bb and they call. Pot=5.15BB So far so good.įlop: 3c5h8h Our stack: 58.8BB Our opponent: 33.76BB Small blind folds and the big blind calls. We have 161 hands on our pokertracker on our friend in the big blind. We are on the button with 60.88BB, our opponent in the small blind has 52.3BB and our main opponent in the hand started with 35.9BB on the big blind. We are at a shorthanded table with only 3 players, myself and 2 others. Bounties are big now compared to the buyin but I know from studying Daras book on PKOs that at this point in the tournament, staying alive and making the pay jumps are starting to outweigh the value of the bounties.

Pay jumps have increased but they are still small in comparison to the final 2 tables.

Just under 1800 player field and we are down to the last 25 players. We are deep in the $22 Bounty Builder on Stars. This hand also fits in nicely with the ICM conversations that have been going on lately especially in the book study. Its been awhile since I posted a hand so I figured I would leave a real brain bender.
